Hell's Kitchen/Moment of Truth

Numerous things have happened. Today, I finally got my passport! And it only took a week! Which shocked me. Anyways tomorrow night I'm helping out with ushering for my school's graduation. And getting community service for it. So I'm happy about that since I need 50 hours before I graduate. And I just need to finish up an English Asst and then I'm done!
I also took my Spanish Final today and passed the class! Which I'm very happy about. So now I just have to worry about getting a job, and traveling, and all that jazz. Oh, also the heat. Since my padre took down the tree in our neighbors yard (for the solar panels), my room has been staying at 90 degrees and getting hotter (that tree was my only way of surviving every summer with its shade during the afternoon). So now I must keep my room on total lock down.
Alright, now I would like to talk about Hell's Kitchen. I've been watching the past couple of weeks, and man! If you want to get stressed or want to become stressed or upset, thats the show to watch. That show is so intense! The one thing I don't really like is all the language. They bleep it out of course, but you don't know what their saying because they bleep so much! lol! Thats our society I guess...
and whats funny is that its always on after American Idol so for all those 12 year olds watching AI then all of a sudden watch Hells Kitchen start acting the same way. I mean that show has a BIG impact on people. Your mood changes after it because you get so upset and stressed because Chef yells at everyone and anything and pushes them all to the limit to see what they can handle and deserve to run his new restaurant in L.A.
I just don't think its worth it.. to be yelled at like that and be humiliated. Its like the Army!
Its like that one show that was on called "Moment of Truth" basically telling all your secrets on TV and confessing to the public of stuff you did from cheating, to stealing, to lying, to everything!
And the thing is, the ratings for that show are high! Its returning next Tuesday or something like that. After 2 or 3 months their back on. And I have to say, some of those episodes are not for 13 or younger for sure. My dad and I watched one and were shocked they ruined a marriage on TV like that with one couple. Just with a lie detector. Anyways, I'd like to know your thoughts on this Television show and see what you think. Because I think its very interesting why people tune into it. My father didn't want any of us watching it when it began. First off it doesn't show responsibility, and these people are just wackos who messed up their lives ad doesn't send a good message to the kids out there when they see those contestants win 5000 and the audience congratulating then and applauding. What does that say to people out there?

I mean, no ones perfect.. but do you have to publicize your problems all over and show how much of an idiot you are? Anyways those are my thoughts for the day.
Peace,

They (the contestants) know what they're going for Shan. It's like Survivor...the contestant is going to know there won't be any luxuries...And it makes for a good show! I think all the language is because he's British...that's all I have to say.

I wasn't talking about him personally. Mainly all of them.

Anyways, well, I guess they know what their doing when they sign those contracts stating that, THAT show has every right to humiliate them to the public and yadda, yadda, yadda.

Haha, if you have the time this summer, go to americanidol.com and see their contract that you have to sign before you audition. Its pretty intense..
